Your videos always have the info I'm looking for. You're my lawn Rabbi

Ain’t nothing wrong with some beautiful soil 😉😆

Love the vid/s! It's nice to see a lawn guy from this side of the globe dealing with our conditions. I'm looking forward to following your journey. 👍

CuriousJoe thanks mate! Glad you are watching. 👍🏽👍🏽

I just bought the 417LI Solo backpack sprayer after buying the 10L two weeks ago. 10L just wasn't enough to efficiently do 1/2 an acre. I really like the draining nozzle feature @2:56, it will make it much easier to clean the sprayer after use. Great video as usual!

@provideEVERYTHING Год назад

as a follow up: i used the 417Li sprayer twice before the gauge broke. It's the most flimsy, low quality, gimmicky aspect of the sprayer.

@Brettsgrasscapades 6 лет назад

Solo makes quality stuff! I've never been disappointed with anything solo! Great video mate!

@LawnTips 6 лет назад

Thanks man! Yeah awesome gear! We use it at work. Quality stuff

I've been using a Selecta battery powered backpack sprayer for a few years now. Works well. Handy to be able to drain the tank from the bottom though.

@LawnTips 6 лет назад

Yeah selecta is great also 👌🏽 Yeah definitely is handy. Used that feature already!

@BallisticSniper1 3 года назад

Any update on how the 417 has been for you?

@frankholehouse1393 3 года назад

Brilliant Video, but not to keen on the Solo brand sprayer ,I purchased one and the lance had a split in it not impressed but your video was good.

@BallisticSniper1 3 года назад

How’s the 417 going?

@terryinozland 2 года назад

I've just picked recently my second Solo 417. The first one is still going strong after 4 or five years. Just the second one is taken over the role of broadleaf spray only while the first one is glyphosate only. And they never feel really heavy due to great balance and comfort. The old manual pump just won't give up and so it's relegated to insecticidal spray. I bought two Stihl small manual sprays and they are just awful. Hate them both and they keep breaking. It's cheaper to chuck them in the wheely bin than to pay Stihl for expensive parts.

@rfederer1000 2 года назад

How much did you pay for it

@campbellslee6773 6 лет назад

The first day of Spring, I'm so over winter.

@bathams 2 года назад

This electric knapsack is a bit frustrating . When I get down to 2 litres left, the pressure goes down and doesn't want to let anymore out

@michaelpeake7801 4 года назад

Great vid thanks mate! May I ask, do you use the same backpack for all your products such as fertiliser, fungicide, insecticide, herbicides, etc? If you do; do you just wash out the pack with water or do use something else to clean it when switching products?

@aaronj9341 3 года назад

I found the new website at DrNozzle.com.au - they have the old MrNozzle product guide on the front page, so I assume they are the same business.

Welcome to the club! Getting caught up on lawn content. Been away for a minute or two. Great video bro! Pumps are for chumps. #batteryallday

@LawnTips 6 лет назад

I've missed you sir! Hope you had an awesome time at the conference or whatever video event it was haha. Can't go back to a pump one now!

@user-cg9oi5ug4d 4 года назад

Hi Ben I'm trying to find your vid where you get annoyed that it always leaves last 2L of fluid, I'm using double nozzle boom and I remmeber you solved this issue, Was it using a pressure regulator tip?

@raymondjoyner8600 5 лет назад

Thanks for the review. How is the sprayer holding up?

@OnTVaustralia 3 года назад

Great vid! Did you end up adding a boom ? And if so which one?

@atlantistheepic 5 лет назад

Heads up Mate there's a recall on the battery charger for the 417 sprayer

@Purewalite 3 года назад

That explains a lot. I've been battling with mine for 3 years.

@davidtomek7246 2 года назад

Hey Ben, i was keen on the nozzles used here. Followed the links from the notes, but the links are not working anymore. Any chance of letting me know what they are and anywhere I could get them from now. Cheers

@kurtignoul6247 4 года назад

Bought this sprayer as well and was looking for these check valves and nozzles you described but the link seems not to work? Can you share some details so I can google for a european version of this please? Thanks.

@mollison34 6 лет назад

Hey Ben, I bought the female thread check valve after your humid acid vid but it doesn't connect to a swagman. Do you know if a male thread would work?

@LawnTips 6 лет назад

Ah, unfortunately the swagman gear doesn’t take any attachments apart from their own. You could always attach a different hose to it with another spray wand.

@lukeherrmann7399 3 года назад

Very informative video, Im definitely going to grab one of these, the link no longer works for the nozzles, I can only find Dr nozzle website at the moment, I have no clue what size flat fan one I would need, thanks

@carlbird4737 6 лет назад

Hey Buddy, Whats the reason for not applying herbicide when still frosty conditions? Can it not be taken up in the leaf?

@LawnTips 6 лет назад

Hey mate! It’s only with poa chek. Which is a wintergrass killer. Can potentially burn your lawn if you get frost the following day

@carlbird4737 6 лет назад

Cool Thanks :) Thought i was doing something wrong.

@DavidRodriguez-vo7rp 6 лет назад

@bathams 2 года назад

Update: I had to send back the 417, constant problems with leaving 2 litres left in the knapsack.. electric knapsacks are great when working but there more trouble then there worth. Matabi knapsack had troubles with, now solo..

@DJ-uv9vw 6 лет назад

Was looking at getting the silvan battery powered knapsack from Bunnings do you know if these are any good or should I spend the extra money and get one of these?

@LawnTips 6 лет назад

Yep, I’ve heard great reviews about the silvan backpack sprayers. A few clients have them and love them. Solo is better quality but the silvan one is still sweet!

@shameelali2549 5 лет назад

Hey man! Does the Myles have the same threads at the solo do you know? You can get the boom from globe growing solutions, farm suppliers. I think even Lawn Pride sells them
